Pseudonym protects against other people in the Internet, not against the government. The gov always knows who you are.
But it does make their life a bit harder. I try to be as anonymous as possible, so they spend a lot of resources on me, only to find out after months of investigation that I'm the most boring average Joe 😂
Yup. But it is necessary to use much more than a pseudonym, with the use of Nostr the Bigtechs will want to enter the game also with a false decentralization as we observe in the CBDCs
